I absolutely love remote work and have a very hard time understanding why anyone would want to spend 14h a week commuting their laptop to a noisy cubicle, buy a shitty $18 lunch in a plastic container and get extra tired on their way home.
I have multiple zoom meetings every day and feel much much closer to my coworkers than during office times.
Also I don’t get interrupted all the time and am able to actually get stuff done.
I guess I am not an extrovert and don’t need to crowdsurf to feel adequate.
- D13Fd 5y agoI'm a major introvert but I prefer working from the office. My house is full of distractions. I have kids, so it can be a bit messy (though not too bad) and ever-changing. My office, however, is clean and organized and ready to go the second I get there. With COVID, almost everyone else tends to work from home, so I get the office to myself or mostly to myself most days. I can sit and really focus on work with zero distractions. The commute is essentially free, since I have to drop my kids off anyway.
- andrei_says_ 5y agoMakes sense, I have full control over my environment at home. And I’m a bit confused. You say you drop your kids off on your way to the office. Why not drop them off and drive back home where they are now not?
